DailyDirt: Foods Going Out Of Style...

from the urls-we-dig-up dept

Food scarcity is a real problem in many parts of the world, but in affluent nations, there are different kinds of food limitations. Not being able to find a "cooler ranch" flavored snack and having to settle for "original flavor" is definitely a first world problem. Here are just a few examples of some food shortages from around the world.

These finning bans actually require fishing vessels to capture whole sharks and bring them back to ports before removing their fins -- which makes the economics of shark fins unfavorable due to the size of the sharks and the low market value for the rest of the shark's meat.

So the solution is genetically engineered sharks that can re-grow their fins in a shark farm... and maybe stick some lasers on their heads for fun.
